On the shore of the lake, the autumn breeze rises, rippling layer by layer. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info under the shade of flowers, bluestone slabs, dotted footprints. The old city gate, the roots of ancient trees, the rings of the rings. How many years later, who will still remember the Congtai in Yingdu. There was the first meeting between Haoxue and Chu Yunhong, permeated with the coolness of early autumn.

Two big red lanterns by the gate, swaying with the wind. She turned around and looked at the three big characters "Ling Yin Mansion" on the plaque, and she really didn't feel good in her heart. She only hated why she was the daughter of Ling Yin of Shu Kingdom, why not, she was not a girl from an ordinary family.

Walking from the gate of the house to Congtai, it is only a short distance. But in Haoxue's opinion, it is indeed thousands of miles away. She followed the familiar path and walked slowly towards the cong platform. The journey is longer, maybe he will be sad for a longer time, and Chu Yunhong will be sad for less.

In fact, even if Haoxue didn't tell his father, about Donglu's ambush of soldiers and horses in the Ganges. Doesn't Shu know it, her existence is just to make this news spread faster. She wanted to stay in the house a little longer, but her father kicked her out.

She knew that if she stayed at home for a long time, she would inevitably be suspicious of Chu Yunhong. She had no choice but to resign from her father in tears. But after returning to Congtai, how to talk to Chu Yunhong. She thought of many reasons, but she denied them for no reason.

"My sister is back!" Chu Yunhong stood at the door, looking left and right. When he saw Haoxue's familiar face, he smiled happily, "I was planning to pick up my sister back......" He said as he took Haoxue's hand and entered the house.

The room was very warm, and the charcoal fire stained the whole room. "Why are my sister's hands so cold? Come to the stove and roast your hands, and I'll make my sister a cup of tea! Chu Yunhong pulled Haoxue to the stove to make it, and got up to make tea again. Looking at his back, Haoxue felt very warm.

Although she was the daughter of Shu Ling Yin, she was locked in her room and practiced piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. originally planned to be sent to the palace by her father, but she would rather die. But later, with the arrival of Chu Yunhong. 's father changed his mind, saying that he wanted Haoxue to help Shu Guo do fine work, so that she could be exempted from the task of entering the palace.

This can be regarded as a condition, to do this task in detail, in exchange for their own freedom. For Haoxue, it is indeed a bit cost-effective. It's just that Haoxue at that time didn't know that his fate with Chu Yunhong was as short as the rain in this autumn.

It's raining, and the sound of rain is wispping. The raindrops that slipped from the glazed tiles fell into a transparent bead curtain in mid-air. Like the strings of an autumn night, it plays a beautiful melody. A cup of warm tea was held in the palm of Haoxue's hand, and she felt the care she had never felt before.

"Your Highness, our army was suddenly attacked in Sangzhong, but I don't know where the other party came from...... Wang Qibo's deep voice came, and Chu Yunhong's brows frowned slightly. How can there be an ambush? Isn't Xiao Yihan protecting the monarch from the side? Chu Yunhong secretly clenched his fists unconsciously.

"Smack-" The teacup in Haoxue's hand was smashed to the ground like this. The emperor in the eastern foot was attacked halfway, and he had just returned from sending news to the king of Shu. In this way, it must be the soldiers and horses sent by the Shu State. Her heart trembled, and her hands trembled.

But seeing Chu Yunhong coming over slowly, he gently stroked her hand and comforted her: "Sister, don't be afraid, my father is okay for the time being." If it's getting late today, it's better for my sister to rest early......" As he spoke, he helped Haoxue back to the room.

The thunder rumbled, and the wind roared. The dark sky was cut through the blood-red by a bolt of lightning. Then the sound of the wind mixed with the sound of rain beat back and forth against the windows. The rain in autumn was so cold that Haoxue was so frightened that she woke up from her dream, but she couldn't sleep anymore.

Thinking back to what Wang Qibo said, her heart became more and more uneasy. If the soldiers at the eastern foot were ambushed in the Ganges, then why did the Chu army make a move in Sangzhong? The two places are separated by two days, and the Chu army's action is ahead of schedule, what is the intention.

Didn't you say yes, you want to sign an armistice at the alliance, and even the hostages were sent back. Why is Shu so untrustworthy? Aren't you afraid that when you meet the alliance, you will be identified by Donglu and make the princes of the world laugh? Haoxue thought about it and finally felt that it was inappropriate.

So she put on a coat and quietly came to Chu Yunhong's room. The candle flame was dim, and it was blown from side to side by the wind. Haoxue leaned against the window and squatted at the base of the wall. Listening carefully to the movement in the room, it was not bad, that Wang Qibo was still in the room.

"Shu made a move in Sangzhong, just to learn that we had an ambush in the Ganges, and they wanted to do it in advance," this is Wang Qibo's voice, as a veteran of the battlefield, he naturally knows the reason. And the treachery of Shu is not once, "As for how the King of Shu learned about these news, it is all the sister of His Royal Highness Lao-"

His voice was long, and Haoxue outside the window could hear it very clearly. She thought she was hiding well enough, but Wang Qibo had already seen through her identity. When he first met Chu Yunhong at the inn, Wang Qibo became suspicious, and it seemed that it was really difficult to deal with.

If that's why you drive yourself out of Congtai. Then she really can't explain to the King of Shu, at that time, she will not only have to be sent to the palace. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is the "culprit".

Just when she was worried, she heard Chu Yunhong's voice from inside: "She is a little maid, how can she influence the government?" His voice was calm, without the slightest hint of hesitation. When Haoxue heard it, she was very grateful to Chu Yunhong for her understanding and capacity.

Wang Qibo's voice teaching Chu Yunhong came from inside, and she had no intention of listening to it again. Instead, he leaned against the wall, closed his eyes slightly, and recalled his first encounter with Chu Yunhong. Because of some kind of worry, she didn't feel sleepy at all. Stretch out your hand and feel the thoughts of the autumn rain.

Memories are like this menacing autumn wind, and the wind and clouds are standing at this time. The slow autumn breeze is mixed with a little rain tide. Under the autumn night, the earth is quietly moistened. The cold rain made her feel guilty about Chu Yunhong, and she wanted to tell Chu Yunhong the truth.

But she was afraid that Chu Yunhong would drive herself out. But if she didn't say it, her heart was tormented. I always can't sleep well at night, but what can I do? She leaned on the window and watched, Chu Yunhong was sitting at the table reading a book, but Wang Qibo was still guarding him.

"The subordinates have already found out that this Haoxue is the daughter of Yin Fu Anping, the commander of the Shu Kingdom," Wang Qibo's voice was not loud, but it shocked Haoxue's heart, she leaned against the window and continued to listen, "Your Highness may have forgotten that Miss Yan is also a maid, and she is still in the palace to control the government?" The emperor asked her to be kicked out of the palace on the grounds of marriage? ”

Who is Miss Yan, she should be a maid. When Haoxue heard Wang Qibo talk about these things, she became more and more excited, and she had a look of wanting to drive herself away and vow not to give up. Even with Wang Qibo by his side, Haoxue was not allowed to say a sentence or a half sentence to Chu Yunhong.

"I am the daughter of Shu State Ling Yin, Fu Haoxue," she slowly pushed open the door and stood in front of Chu Yunhong and Wang Qibo, her expression as indifferent as a gardenia after the rain. In Haoxue's opinion, tell the truth at this time. Maybe Chu Yunhong will spare her, at least her heart will not be disturbed by this.

The autumn wind is blowing, and the sky is high and the clouds are light. The lonely bird is one color, and the geese fly south. In the clean sky, a few white clouds splashed with ink. Occasionally, a few yellow leaves fall, and the autumn scenery along the way is embellished like a landscape painting. On the official road leading to Fengqiu, several half-rolled flags can be faintly seen fluttering in the wind.

Mourning is all over the field, full of sadness. Looking at these injured soldiers, Chu Junhao's heart was furious. It's just that he clenched his fists and secretly vowed to go to Fengqiu to seek justice from Shu. Then he asked Wang Lianying and Xianyun to check the number of injured people.

"Forty-five dead and wounded, and a carriage has been damaged," Wang Lianying said, and then Xianyun also rushed over to tell Chu Junhao that this place was only two days away from the Ganges River, the border of Chen. And there are no inns or places to rest halfway down.

This is difficult, Chu Junhao looked around. It belongs to the Sangzhong area at the eastern foot and is surrounded by mountains. From here, you can hear the sound of waterfalls in the mountains and cliffs, and there are so many people injured in the barren mountains, but how can it be good?

At this time, the western sky was overcast. Immediately followed by a burst of autumn rain, although it was not raining much, but it also made people feel the slightest coolness in the ninth autumn season. There was no way, so Chu Junhao ordered the soldiers to camp in the same place.

There were not many soldiers brought along the way, more than 100 in total. Now nearly half of them are wounded, and there is not enough medicine here, so that the old wounded doctors who are traveling with the army have no choice. There is also food brought, and there is no water nearby, but how can you bury the pot to make rice?

If there was no surprise attack by the Chu army, the Ganges could have been reached according to the plan. You can also stay overnight in the village there, but now there is no village in front of you and no shop in the back. It was cold and wet, so I had to spend the night. The autumn rain was unhurried, drenching this heavy land.

The weather in the mountains was dark early, Wang Lianying lit the charcoal fire early, and the tent was a little warmer. Just as Chu Junhao was looking at the sheepskin map in the military tent in a daze, he heard the voice of Xianyun behind him: "The slave has found the water source, the emperor should wash and rest first!" ”

Chu Junhao turned around and looked at the large bucket of water brought by Xian Yun. I secretly wondered in my heart, I had never heard that there would be a water source in the Sangzhong area. Xianyun wiped the sweat from his head and said with a smile: "A few days before we came, there was a heavy rainstorm here, and there is some water stored in the col over there......

For some reason, when I saw Xianyun serving herself. Chu Junhao couldn't help but think of Wanning, Wanning at this time would definitely be the same as Xianyun, and he would always try his best to make it convenient for him. It's been a few days now, and Wanning must be doing well.

"There are still three soldiers in the camp, they haven't eaten yet, you can send them to them," Chu Junhao, who had experienced the years of suffering and exile, also had a more compassionate feeling. He knew that if Donglu wanted to dominate the world, he must capture the hearts of the people, and Wanning stood with him.

If you are there at this time, you will definitely go with joy. Chu Junhao suddenly remembered that at the beginning of the restoration of the country, when the plague occurred in Kyoto, it was Wanning who took the lead in delivering medicine to the victims. also stayed up late in the palace to sew winter clothes for the victims, which made Chu Junhao quite moved.

No matter how Wan Ning made decisions in the palace, he couldn't erase Chu Junhao's thoughts about Wan Ning. He slowly stood up and stood outside the tent. The thoughts that were blown by the autumn rain seemed to have flown to Wanning's side. It's just that sometimes, some thoughts can only be buried in the bottom of my heart.

Chu Junhao at that time naturally didn't know, and Wanning didn't know a few days after he left. has quietly returned to Zhengyang Palace, worried about his safety, and at the same time worried about the community at the eastern foothills. I don't know if Chu Junhao at this time will still face Wanning as before.

On the east mountain of the moon, a few stars are dotted in between, setting off the silence of the night. The autumn rain gradually stopped, and a faint mist rose. Soon the moon and stars were enveloped like a veil of light. Occasionally, the chirping of insects can be heard in the grass, making the valley even quieter.

Starting from Donglu all the way to Sangzhong, it was only a few days before he was plotted by Shu. I can't help but think about this departure again. What went wrong, and why did the Shu State betray its promise. On the one hand, he promised an armistice agreement, and on the other hand, he made a move on the eastern foothills.

Naturally, if it is treacherous, the Shu Kingdom will be ridiculed by the world. Then there is only one reason, Shu thinks it will be beneficial. What will be the benefits? Is it to look at Donglu's attitude towards the armistice agreement, or to explore the reality of Donglu?

Just as Chu Junhao was looking at the map and analyzing the reason for the terrain, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the thin clouds standing aside and stirring the lamp and candle. Her beautiful figure made Chu Junhao's longing for Wanning increase day by day. They were about to worry about each other, and there was a sound of whistle pigeons outside the tent.

"Your Majesty, a letter from Kyoto," Wang Lianying pulled the letterhead from the pigeon's leg and handed it to Chu Junhao's hand. A graceful smile flashed in his mind, as he hurriedly opened the letterhead and looked at it. Wan Ning's familiar handwriting was displayed, which made Chu Junhao's heart burst into ecstasy.

Yes, Chu Junhao guessed that the letterhead from Kyoto would inevitably be written by Wanning. Just thinking about Wanning, a letter came. In the end, he was still thinking about himself in his heart, Chu Junhao looked at the letter again: Ning'er, I really can't see enough.

"This pigeon is a gray ......" Xianyun on the side saw the pigeon in Wang Lianying's hand, and said to himself, "I have always used gray carrier pigeons only for urgent news, I don't know what news the girl has?" Chu Junhao forgot about this, and he just began to read between the lines carefully.

The meaning of the letter is very clear, first, Chu Yunhong arrived in Shu safely, although he was under house arrest, he did not worry about his life. The second is that Xiao Yihan ambushed some of his men and horses in the Ganges River to protect Chu Junhao's alliance in Fengqiu. Wanwang Chu Junhao and Xiao Yihan converge, but they must not be known by outsiders.

Two meanings, concise and concise. It was also because of this letter that Chu Junhao suddenly understood one thing. That is, why Shu will do it in Sangzhong, it must be because Shu knows that there is an ambush in the Ganges, so it will do it in advance in Sangzhong.

But there is one more thing Chu Junhao can't understand, how could Shu know about Xiao Yihan's ambush in the Ganges, could it be that there is a Shu country in the east foothills? Or by Chu Yunhong's side of Shu Kingdom, there was a fine work sent out to inform the king of Shu.

If it is the first case, then find out the fine work in the eastern foothills. If it is the second case, Chu Yunhong will have to be careful of the people around him. No matter what, Chu Junhao understood one thing. When Wanning arranged for Xiao Yihan to go to the Ganges, I am afraid that it would have been known by Shu for a long time.

He pondered for a while before he walked over to the table and wrote a reply. One is to Wanning to track down all the suspicious people in the eastern foothills, and the other is to ask her to inform Chu Yunhong that she must be cautious in Shu Kingdom. The third is to tell Zuo Xiang these things gently, but he must keep his mouth shut. so as not to disturb people's hearts.

The doves flew far into the air and flew towards Kyoto. Chu Junhao then wrote another word: The autumn rain is difficult to enter the night, and the spring breeze is shared with the gardenia. The inscription is a "Hao" word, and the two lines of handwriting are sent to Wanning with a white pigeon, hoping that Wanning can understand her mind.

So the story of the struggle for power opens another chapter. It's just that shallow thoughts, still in the bottom of my heart, just wait for the lonely night, and then take it out and savor it. The quiet night sky blooms with a gardenia of memories.
